Union Contract Being Implemented, But Not The One We Voted On

Hi all,

A union contract at my job is being implemented. The terms in the Contract, however, are different from the terms that we, as a union, voted to ratify.

The contract, which was provided by the employer for us to ratify, had a higher dollar per hour rate. We voted and ratified that contract.

The employer, however, then said that the dollar an hour rate provided in the contract they gave to us to vote on was a typo on their end and that they did not negotiate that rate.

The issue, however, is that the new rate was never brought before the union to ratify and apparently is now going to be implemented without a vote.

I know I personally would not have voted yes for the contract under the rate we are currently being given. I only voted yes based on the supposed typo error that we were provided.

Concerns were raised to the union but the president stated they do not want the hassle of putting the contract back up for another vote and are pushing it through despite the terms being different than what we voted on.

Can I take legal action against my employer or union? I feel implementing a contract we did not vote on is wrong.
